The air shutter allows the amount of air coming into the replace to be adjusted in order to accommodate
different climates and venting arrangements. Start the pilot and then the burner. Make sure the pilot
ame is burning normally and none of the burner ports are plugged. Let the replace burn for roughly
fteen minutes and then examine the ames, compare the ames to Figure 40.
The ideal ame will be blue at the base and light orange above. The ames should be of medium height.
If the ames look like this, no venturi adjustment is needed. If the ames are fairly short and mostly
more air / open
less air / close
Air Shutter
blue, the replace is getting too much
air. Therefore, the air shutter should be
closed (push in) slightly until the correct
ames are achieved. Flames that are
very orange, with tall, dark, stringy tips,
are not getting enough air. Open (pull
out) the venturi until the ames clean
up. If the venturi is opened, or closed all
the way, and the correct ames cannot
be attained, turn off the gas and contact
the dealer.
Warning: Incorrect venturi adjustment
may lead to improper combustion, which
is a safety hazard. Contact the dealer if
there is any concern about the venturi
adjustment.

Maintenance And Service
Routine maintenance:
At least once a year, run through the following procedures to ensure the system is clean and working
properly. Check the burner to see if all the ports are clear and clean. Check the pilot to make sure it is not
blocked by anything. The pilot ame should be blue with little or no yellow on the tips.
Warning: Clearances must be sufcient to allow access for maintenance and service
Warning: Failure to position the parts in accordance with this manual, or failure to use only parts
specically approved with this appliance may result in property damage or personal injury.
The venting system must be periodically examined; it is recommended the examination is done by a
qualied agency.
cLeaning the gLass:
When the replace has cooled, remove the face of the replace along with the glass. See Maintenance
and Service - GlaSS door reMoval. Check the gasket material on the back of the glass, making sure that
it is attached and intact.
During a cold start up, condensation will sometimes form on the glass. This is a normal condition with all
replaces. However, this condensation can allow dust and lint to cling to the glass surface. Initial paint
curing of the appliance can leave a slight lm behind the glass, a temporary problem. The glass will need
cleaning about two weeks after installation. Use a mild glass cleaner and a soft cloth; abrasive
cleaners will damage the glass and plated surfaces. Depending on the amount of use, the glass
should require cleaning no more than two or three times a season. Do not clean the glass when it is
hot.
cLeaning the FiRebox:
Remove the logs carefully, as they are very fragile. Gently remove all the embers and rock wool and place
on a paper towel. Vacuum the bottom of the rebox thoroughly. Carefully clean any dust off the logs and
remove any lint from the burner and pilot. At this time, inspect the burner pan for cracking or severe
warping. If a problem is suspected, contact the dealer. Check the logs for deterioration or large amounts
of soot; a small amount on the bottom side of the logs is normal. Replace the logs and embers as in the
Secondary inStallation - loG Set and eMber inStallation section. If new/more embers and rock wool are
required, contact your nearest ENVIRO dealer.
RePLacing the gLass:
The glass in the replace is a high temperature ceramic. If the glass is damaged in any way, a factory
replacement is required (see PartS liSt). Wear gloves when handling damaged glass door assembly
to prevent personal injury. When the glass door assembly is being transported, it must be wrapped in
newsprint and tape and/or a strong plastic bag. Do not operate with the glass front removed, cracked
or broken. Removal and replacement of the glass from the door must be done by a licensed or qualied
service person. The glass must be purchased from an ENVIRO dealer. No substitute materials
are allowed.

Maintenance And Service
cLeaning DecoRative suRFaces:
Painted and porcelain faces should be wiped with a damp cloth periodically. If a plated face has been
purchased, it should be unpacked/unwrapped carefully to avoid getting anything on the surface of the
nish, including cleaners, polish and nger prints. It is important to note that ngerprints and other
marks can leave a permanent stain on plated nishes. To avoid this, give the face a quick wipe with
denatured alcohol on a soft cloth BEFORE lighting the replace. Never clean the face when it is
hot. Do not use other cleaners as they may leave a residue, which can become permanently etched into
the surface.
If your ngers come into contact with the antique copper nish, the oils left as ngerprints on the
copper can cause discoloration, which will eventually turn green in that area. You can clean the patina
or discoloured areas of the antique copper nish with “OO” 3M green sanding pads. These can be
purchased from most hardware stores. On the areas with discoloration, use the sanding pads to sand
in the same direction as the brushed nish, then blend the nish by feathering in the surrounding area.
This renishing procedure has been approved by the manufacturer and will not harm the nish. Please
note: ANTIQUE COPPER IS THE ONLY FINISH THAT CAN BE SANDED, DO NOT SAND PEWTER, GOLD
OR NICKEL FINISHES.
gLass DooR RemovaL:
In order to install the log set, and
for regular cleaning, the glass door
must be removed. There are two
(2) door latch mechanisms under
the glass door shown in Figure
7. Each latch has two (2) nger
grooves, use these to pull the
mechanisms straight out. When
the bottom latches are unhooked,
lift the door straight up over the
placement pins at the top of the
door, shown in Figure 8.
To replace the glass door, simply
reverse the above procedure.
Warning: Do not touch or attempt
to remove the glass if the replace
is not completely cold.
WARNING: Never operate
the replace with the glass
removed.

The location for the replace can be along a
wall, raised or at oor level, or in a corner.
There are specic framing measurements for
each situation. The basic opening should have
the dimensions shown in Figure 15.
The replace must have a strong and level
surface to be placed on. The surface should be
made of wood or a non-combustible material,
not carpet.
The framing boards may touch the top and
back standoffs, but no insulating material
can be placed between the frame and the
standoffs.
The gas line, ⅜ inch NPT, should be brought
to the right side of the replace. If this set up
is inconvenient, the electrical wire and the gas
line conguration can be reversed.

The location should be chosen so the replace will be at least 36 inches (91.4 cm) from drapes, doors
and other combustibles. The framed opening should also be a minimum of 1 inches (2.5 cm) from the
nearest perpendicular wall (sidewall to the edge of the opening).
The DV36 is designed so it can be installed at oor level without a required hearth.

Mount the two framing mount brackets on each side and secure the
replace to framing with screws or nails (refer to Figure 16). The brackets
will allow for a ½” (13 mm), ⅝” (16 mm), ¾” (19 mm) thick nishing
wall. The wall may be nished up to the replace facing with combustible
material.

Even though the DV36 can be installed at oor
level without a hearth, there are a few options
with raised replaces: raised with a oor level
hearth (Figures 19), raised with a raised hearth
(Figures 20), or raised with no hearth (Figures 21).
If the replace is raised, it cannot be placed within
37 inches (1.04 m) of the ceiling. When installing
a raised replace, it is imperative that the support
stand is strong enough to hold the weight of the
replace and venting.
